Use at the control table
Open the field control that matches the project decision in front of the team.
These cards help a nonprofit govern an active implementation. They do not receive project data, provide consulting, interpret a contract, certify a system, or replace accountable professional review.
Build an engagement charter
A contract is signed or close to signing, but the team still needs one plain-language view of the operating result, boundaries, roles, and decision points.
02 / GovernanceAssign implementation decision rights
Meetings produce discussion but requirements, configuration, data, risk, and acceptance decisions still wait for an unclear owner.
03 / DeliveryMaintain a RAID and decision log
Risks, assumptions, issues, dependencies, and decisions are scattered across meeting notes, email, chat, and individual memory.
04 / DataPlan a data migration rehearsal
The project will move records or reconnect systems and the team needs to prove mapping, reconciliation, rollback, and ownership before cutover.
05 / AdoptionWrite a user acceptance plan
The system works in a demonstration, but the nonprofit has not defined who will test real work or what evidence supports acceptance.
06 / TransferRun an operational handoff
Go-live is approaching and accounts, documentation, recurring duties, support boundaries, and consultant access are not yet under nonprofit control.
